Bonnie,

I see that no one else has responded so I am bumping this to the top...sometimes things get buried and I don't want you to think that no one else cares.

Anyone else care to comment?? Many here have had surgery so they should give you imput.

I guess my only comment is: Is this facility where your daughter is being seen a NCI or qualified CCC? Sorry to beat this to death but it is so important!

Deb
